R1sIFrs DAUGHTER. A Drama. BY .AsSA
MANS Sons Sale, A. 8. Witherbee Il Co. sl
We have carefully read this blank verse
drama from beginning to end, and ex-
perienced but one sorrow at last--that the
last had been arrived at. With no in-
tention TO sketch the plot, as to do
SO would be unkind to a
future reader, we state that IL Is
delicate ard sometimes intricate love-story;
that II is never violent in tone; that It's In
terest continually accumulates, and that
the denouement, which is naturally brought
about, is startling, powerful, effective.
A single passage from among many pas
sages OF beauty we quote, thus;
Gineprd.
And you remember still
Gioranni.
Ay, lady, STILL
Ginerd.
A face Just lifted from the circling crowd
And straightway lost again like some white
Swallowed by sister billows2 Q
! Gi0ravli.
Even so.
Gineprd, tviih agitation.
And love me2
Giopdnni.
Love your o that words weak words,
Mere bubbles OF the breath tossed out to die
on every wayTSId breeze that rets the air.
Love your My whole soul floats upon your
smile
My natural breath IN your sweet atmosphere
But Il does seem 70 eAtch fairy fragrance.
love your My Wild heart leaps unto my lips;
Ilcreyou so fscsroe can say I'love YOU.

A grand yolume-an honor to America.
We have noticed, from time to time, as
they were issued, the various numbers of
this publication, with merited praise. All
that can now be written is, that the COM
pleted volume presents magnificent ap-
pearance. Its binding, while gorgeous,
is chaste and approprlate;. the
print large, clear, beautiful the
subject historical, romantic, national,
eminently important, and the Illustration,
generally, in the most exquisite style OF
art. Yet on this latter point We deem 1t
necessary, here and there, to blame the
publishers, to accuse them Of unjustiliable
neglect. To partlcularize, the portrait Of
